winter snow riding question!

[yellow400ex05]

What is a good tire pressure to ride in the snow?

[Xater]

im not sure but i use a bit more for clearence and float

for normal riding i run 6 in the front-22 inch tires, and 5 in the rear-20 inch tires. for the snow i take a little bit out, maybe a pound or two. dont take too much out though because you run a chance of bending a rim then. taking air out seems to give me a little more traction when needed.

o ok thnx, but 5 seems a little much for regualr riding , 4.5 is prolly perfect it also prolongs tire wear..

yup that works good too. if u have a snowmobile u can make a groomer out of wood that u can tow behind.

or you could be like all of us lovely people from norwich,connecticut and race through the streets of the city park

i've managed to blow up a motor every year doin that but mostly because of weight limits two 180# kids on a blaster is just not good
